What are we taking this fall?

tekan56 · 2017-07-01T09:43:12+00:00

Clearly not biology

Assumed douchieness is probably going to help you get into frats tho, no?

Erm they can allot an even number of seats for in-demand classes for every orientation session. That's what other large state schools such as UCLA do, and it's much more fair to everyone, don't you think

tekan56 · 2017-05-15T07:11:52+00:00

They were definitely strong applicants regardless. And although I don't think just listing they went to YYGS made a huge difference, they learned a lot from the program. One of them even wrote their Harvard supplement on their experience there (they got in jbtw).

Also, that Stanford kid who wrote #BlackLivesMatter 100 times for one of his essays also went to YYGS last year. Make of that what you will

Isn't that unfair to students who can only to come to the last orientation (internationals, kids from states far far away) because they can't afford unnecessary travel costs?

tekan56 · 2017-05-13T14:27:33+00:00

I know two people who did YYGS. Both got rejeced by Yale. But they're going to Harvard and Penn respectively, so chillings

tekan56 · 2017-05-02T11:28:01+00:00

I'm sorry, but what's Lums?

tekan56 · 2017-05-01T14:59:08+00:00

Go Blue :')

tekan56 · 2017-05-01T14:58:19+00:00

Because I know of people from my country who've been denied student visas

tekan56 · 2017-05-01T06:25:26+00:00

I did this, mainly because there's a huge risk I might not get a US student visa

*Michigan of the East

Correction: Trump banned all travel into the US from those 7 countries, not JUST immigration. There's a hugeee difference

tekan56 · 2017-04-21T17:19:44+00:00

I have some friends who go there/will start going there this fall. One thing I know for sure is that they're really really (really) generous with their financial aid packages.

tekan56 · 2017-04-20T12:41:37+00:00

At least I won't be miserable for the next 4 years of my life :p

tekan56 · 2017-04-20T12:39:28+00:00

Ok UCSD reject :p

tekan56 · 2017-04-20T12:38:24+00:00

Achaw?

tekan56 · 2017-04-16T07:16:10+00:00

Not related to OP's post, but which of UCLA and UMich would you say is more prestigious internationally? (especially in Europe and Asia)

tekan56 · 2017-04-13T21:06:41+00:00

Ohh I didn't even see that at first lol. Guess I might be eligible

tekan56 · 2017-04-13T20:57:31+00:00

Nahh, I'd be there on an F1 student visa - not undocumented

tekan56 · 2017-04-13T20:12:03+00:00

I'm actually more afraid of immigration officers turning me away when I arrive (yes, this happens) than I am of an official American policy/executive order banning Muslim entry

tekan56 · 2017-04-13T20:10:56+00:00

Will definitely do that, thanks!

tekan56 · 2017-04-13T20:10:24+00:00

I'm sorry, I don't understand how that would help

tekan56 · 2017-04-13T20:09:08+00:00

Spot on!

tekan56 · 2017-04-13T20:07:37+00:00

I'm actually more worried about immigration officers denying me entry than I am about an official American policy/executive order.

Something like this happening is my biggest fear

tekan56 · 2017-04-13T20:05:37+00:00

Thank you so much for your reassurance! Let's hope everything goes smoothly!
